I've been noticing that whenever I sweat, it ends up smelling really bad, almost like urine. It's really weird because it only happens when I'm stressed or feeling scared. Im struggling to give my all at work because of it and I'm really worried. What can I do about this?

bad smell sweat like urine during stress requires a multi-faceted approach. Here's a comprehensive plan:
Medical Treatment
- Antiperspirants: Use antiperspirants containing aluminum salts (e.g., aluminum chloride) to reduce sweat.
- Antibacterial soaps: Use antibacterial soaps to reduce bacteria that contribute to body odor.
- Deodorants: Apply deodorants containing fragrances or antimicrobial agents to help mask or reduce odor.
Lifestyle Changes
- Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help your body regulate its temperature and sweat more efficiently.
- Diet: Avoid foods that can make sweat smell worse, such as garlic, onions, or spicy foods.
- Exercise: Regular exercise can help reduce stress and anxiety, but shower or bathe as soon as possible after exercising.
- Clothing: Wear breathable, natural-fiber clothing to help keep you cool and dry.
- Stress management: Engage in stress-reducing activities, such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises

I'm thinking about getting a permanent laser fairness treatment for my whole body because I have a pretty typical Indian skin tone, not too dark or too light. I'm really curious about which treatment centers offer the best results, especially if they're in or around Pune, and how much it might cost. I have normal skin, not sensitive, and I'm also wondering what steps I should take to keep my skin complexion fair after the treatment. Any advice would be appreciated!

I've been having some issues since taking a tablet for my kidney stones. My scalp has become really itchy, and I've noticed a lot of hair fall. Plus, I have adenomyosis, so I'm a bit worried about all these symptoms happening at once. Could they be related, or should I be looking at something else as the cause?
Hair fall and itchy scalp can be side effects of certain medications. In your case, it could be due to the tablet you took for kidney stones. I recommend using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide for your itchy scalp. For hair fall, you can try minoxidil solution on your scalp. As for adenomyosis, you may benefit from taking hormonal medications such as birth control pills or a progesterone-releasing intrauterine device (IUD) to help manage the symptoms.
